Anniversary Cupcakes for Radley

As a team of handbag devotees, we were delighted to be commissioned by Radley to create towers of cupcakes for shoppers to enjoy in celebration of their 10th Anniversary. Mases of brightly coloured vanilla cupcakes covered in sprinkles went down a storm!

Autumnal Glam!

We just loved this cake! Oozing moody glamour and divine with fresh grand prix roses, dark cala lilies and fresh berries - so autumnal. Far too often the dressing of the cake table is overlooked - we always take crystals and/or pearls and an extra length of ribbon for the cake knife - and ask the bride to consider some fresh rose petals and tealights to really set the scene! Fabulous photo courtesy of Lawson Photography - thanks guys. Check out their website for truly stunning wedding photography, and if you're still venue hunting, prepare to be entranced with Thornton Manor.

Roses and Butterflies


Katie and Lawrence's wedding was sensational! Beautiful white phalaenopsis orchids and golden butterflies adorned every table. The cake we created was a five tier tower of white sugar roses finished with glittering butterflies - a stunner! Thanks for the photo Katie and Lawrence.

Collette and John's Cupcake Tower

Collette's wedding at Hillbark was a gorgeous, romantic affair. White chair covers tied with candy coloured sashes, vintage pink roses, and candelbras draped with strings of pearls. The tower of glittery cupcakes completed the look - the French Vanilla Cupcakes with Champagne, Strawberry and Buttercream were a big hit with guests! The stand looked fabulous finished with roses and pearls, and topped with a ribbon-tied top tier cutting cake. Thanks for the photo Collette x (Courtesy of Lawson Photography).

Chloe and Ed's Wedding


When we first met with Ed and Chloe, they were completely unsure of what kind of cake to go for but knew they wanted something personal to them, and striking with a minimum of flowers and fuss! We eventually decided on a simple 4-tier stacked cake (Carrot Cake with Orange and Cointreau Cream - delicious!), trimmed in soft ivory satin ribbon overlaid with gorgeous sage green ribbon decorated with the lyrics of their favourite song which were even more relevant given the downpour on their big day! ('It may be cloudy, it may be sunny. We're in or we're out of the money. But I'm with you always. I'm with you rain or shine'). Thanks for the photos Chloe xx

Country Romance Cake


We were so pleased to see our Chocolate Country Flowers Cake in the latest issue of 'Brides' Magzine out this week. The feature also has some truly gorgeous images of flowers, table settings, confetti and a very yummy looking lemon syllabub!

Mhairi and Thom's Wedding

Mhairi and Thom's wedding at Inglewood Manor last month was stunning. They chose a crisp, white backdrop, gorgeous mocca bridesmaids dresses and soft pastel roses . Their cake was decorated with royal iced motifs and looked gorgeous set on a vintage silver cake stand finished with clusters of fresh flowers and rose petals. A mocca ribbon around the cake knife completed the look. Apparently the Champagne Vanilla Cake was a big hit! Thank you for the photo Mhairi x
